[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  ... But I am just tired of anything Romney says from a Federalist perspective being touted as his position on a topic.  Just because he wants the Federal Government out of it, doesn't mean he's against it.[/quote]
So, OP, is it your view that Romney is not really Pro-Life at all?  And it's just that he wants to be a pure Federalist, and abortion rights at the state level will just be possible "collateral damage"?

I just did a quick news search and found several articles from just the past 24 hours, which all seem to make clear that Romney is Pro-Life.

Romney: ‘I’ll Be a Pro-Life President’

 “The actions I’ll take immediately are to remove funding for planned parenthood. It will not be part of my budget.”  During the GOP primaries Mr. Romney said he would advocate for a bill designed to protect unborn children “who are capable of feeling pain from abortion.” [u]In the past he’s also thrown his support behind a constitutional amendment to define life at conception[/u].

"In the wake of Romney’s comments, the anti-abortion rights group Susan B. Anthony List promptly distributed an article the candidate had written in June 2011, outlining his commitment to promoting an anti-abortion rights agenda. The group expressed its “full confidence” that Romney “will stand by” those commitments."[/quote]
